About Us
Christ for the Crescent Moon Evangelical Ministries was founded by Pastors Mani and Jennifer Erfan in 2000. Mani was born a Shiite Muslim in Iran and immigrated to United States in 1983. Through a miraculous encounter with Jesus Christ, Mani came to know the Lord in 1987 and has been in active ministry amongst Muslims since 1993. Mani and Jennifer have been married since 1995 and have a daughter named Esther and a son named Micah.
While Pastor Mani was the senior pastor of the Iranian Church of Houston, God gave him a vision to directly reach out to the nation of Iran though the power of satellite television. This seemed impossible at first, as there were no Farsi language Christian satellite channels available in Iran, but this soon changed in December 2001 and CCM Ministries aired the first Farsi Christian program ever in Iran’s history. Over 2,000,000 Households watched our first program.
The LORD allowed us to stretch over the walls of Islam and minister to Iran from the Heavens above.
Through our partnership with Mohabat TV, our weekly TV program now reaches over 7,000,000 Iranian Muslims every day.
Since our ministry began, Over 450,000 souls have come to know Jesus Christ, More than 400 underground churches have been established and the Gospel grows steadily in the midst of the nation of Iran.
The focus of our ministry is three fold:

The focus of our ministry is three fold:
- Winning Iran for Christ: The Preaching of the Gospel to the whole nation and building and supporting the growing underground church in Iran.
- Winning Muslims and Unbelievers Worldwide: Through strategic mission work in places such as Kenya, Indonesia, Liberia, India , Dubai, and other remote areas we strive to win souls across the globe through open missions, building orphanages, clinics and other activities.
- Preparing the Church: Bringing the end-time prophetic message to the American Church to prepare for the challenging last days awaiting all Christians.
With your help we can save one million Muslim souls worldwide and plant the seeds of the latter day revival we desperately need in the United States of America.
